What do you know about owning a team and the responsibilites of running a team/stadium etc.

Art doesn't run Heinz Field. The SEA and the city do because they own it.

Let me guees, Ben is being held back by a guy who sits in an office. Ben needs to take the responsibility and be a leader.

The ENTIRE TEAM is being held back because of Art. He square pegged round holed the entire team because he doesn't want to embrace, nor accept, what the current NFL actually is. You can't spend DOUBLE the cap dollars on defense, and then revamp an offense to "protect them". You either have to give the offense more money, or allow the offense to have a priority on scoring points, instead of time of possession.

Your insinuation that growing up in a business and then leading that business for a decade leads to knowing nothing about that business, definitely makes the Top 5 list of dumb *** **** you've said the last few months

Art II didn't "grow up" in the Steelers business. He was a lawyer in PRIVATE PRACTICE for 20 years while Dan was running the team.

Give me facts. You have none. He was more involved with private practice and on the verge of entering politics before taking an active role with the Steelers.

Do your homework.

Class dismissed.

You ask for facts, but when people here ask you for facts, you never show them. You bash Rooney and say everything he does is wrong, Yet you are here posting on Steeler forum. If it's not Haley, it is Rooney.

Are you Bens PA?

Your obsession with Rooney/Haley is awkwardly creepy. I will leave you alone now to go fap to Bens poster on your wall. Good day

Your assumptions aren't facts. They are beliefs you are required to hold to maintain your theory.

Art Rooney II realized early he was in a football family.

"I got dragged to games probably as early as I can remember at Forbes Field," says Rooney, 56.

He became ball boy in training camp.

"The rule always was roughly that you had to be in high school to be a ball boy. I started showing up when my dad would take me there as an unofficial ball boy, probably as early as 9 or 10 years old," he says.

Not to mention, that his 20 years in private practice were spent as the Team's Legal Counsel

He's been around the team since the beginning... to presume he knows nothing about football is a leap of retarded blind faith to ones own delusion.

The idea that you feel qualified enough to comment on the game of football (presumably because you believe you know something about it), and at the same time claim that the Team President whose family has owned the team forever... is easily, the dumbest position any self respecting fan could hold

I know a lot about football (A hell of a lot more than you), and I know Art II knows a lot more than I'll ever know
